Behind

[spally]

A friend be new
for friends be true,
tied in memories of good-bye.
Times and placed
of names and faces
drift upon an open space.
Every name and every face
left to wallow
in empty spaces.
From young to old,
lost and found
drifts along while living on.
Forgetting what they left behind
an empty space where only shadow reside
clutters of emotions left inside.
Forgetting over time,
every place at any time
could spark a glimps of names and faces.
Cities apart,
yet worlds away.
Left in oceans to be forgotten
to shed a tear for what we lost
and hold a candle for what we had.
A friend is here
for friends bring truth
memories to see us through.

I enjoyed it too, spally. Nice clean poem.

Quite lovely.
